An ultra-wide view for expansive drama

Capture thrilling images and video in wide-open or confined spaces using a 14mm hybrid prime lens with an immense 114° diagonal field of view.

Shoot more freely in low light

A bright f/1.4 aperture lets you use faster shutter speeds without pushing ISO higher, while the shallow depth of field adds creative freedom for an ultra-wide lens.

Uncompromising image quality

Enjoy greater clarity thanks to the use of advanced UD, BR and Fluorite lenses to control chromatic aberration, plus SWC and ASC coatings to reduce ghosting and flare.

Sharper details across the frame

Three GMo aspherical elements suppress sagittal coma flare for finely rendered point light sources – such as stars in astrophotography – and superb edge-to-edge precision.

Precise control for photography and video

Hybrid features include a dedicated smooth-action Iris Ring3, 11-blade circular aperture, minimal focus breathing and a Voice Coil Motor1 for fast, smooth and quiet autofocus.

Lightweight, weather-resistant construction2
